It combines the advantages of a car — such as safety, weather protection and stability — with the ease of a bicycle and the low energy consumption and space utilization of a light electric vehicle.
It's perfect for short commutes and has an all-electric range of up to 50 km.
The vehicle has a top speed of 45 Km/h, and a set of roof-mounted solar panels rapidly recharge the vehicle’s 1000Wh battery.
A single hour in the sun will yield 5-10 km of range, and the vehicle will fully recharge in 3-4 hours.
It is 140 cm wide, 200 cm long and 130 cm high and is large enough to seat 2 adults up front and 2 children in the back with optional kids seats.
The tricycle can also be propelled by pedal power to further extend its range, and a regenerative braking system stores energy as the vehicle slows down.
It has a full lighting system, turn blinkers, safety belts, a front crash crumple zone, side impact protection, and other safety features and one can feel comfortable commuting in the environmentally-friendly vehicle.
In fact, this technology vehicles can be implemented in rural and semi urban areas in the developing countries across the globe, where there is need of slow speed vehicles without using fossil fuels. (Source: Mo, Evovelo)
